Top Spin Review

IGN Entertainment

Conclusion: I’ve written this whole review with only one Anna reference (if ya’ll don’t know, she is awful in tennis, but looks good playing it) and NO tennis lingo puns, but I can’t help myself - I LOVE this game! There is really nothing bad that can be said about it in any facet of the game, but it is so quickly apparent that the gameplay makes Top Spin as good as it is and so damn addicting.

Excerpt: The Virtua Tennis series has had a fair old run as the king of the tennis sims, and deservedly so. A simple but deep control system, excellent gameplay and some amazing multiplayer memories meant that it was going to take a huge effort by some development team or another to even come close. Slam Tennis, Next Generation Tennis and a plethora of other pretenders to the throne have all come across well, but not well enough to finish the job.

Excerpt: Competition is fierce in sports gaming, and not just between determined players and the ingenious A.I. that developers deftly incorporate into these games. Store shelves are inundated with sports titles, and for good reason: it can be astonishingly profitable.

Conclusion: This is the best tennis game ever created. There I said it. Better than the likes of Virtua Tennis and Mario Tennis. Not to say there aren’t any flaws; the inability to play mixed tennis at any point in the game, including multiplayer, is a shame. As is the fact you can’t use a custom soundtrack. To put it simply, if you like tennis, this game is a must. If you despise the sport then you should still consider getting this game even if it goes against all instinct.
